lo. Morphomiina fulvitacta spei'. uov. 



Indistinguishable from Coflnromima x/i/j/'asciata, except liy tiio i)reseiice of 

 some fulvous scaling below costa at tlie angulation of the outer line. The 

 difference in the antennal structure will separate it from snbfasciatn as well as 

 the contour of the hindwings, which is that of Si/M/ria. 



Expanse of wings : 35 mm. 



1 <J from Colombia. 



Neodirades geu. uov. 



Differs from Diiw/t's, the Old-World genus, in the foUowing points :— vein 

 11 of Ibrewing rises far back near base and anastomoses strongly with 12; 

 vein 5 from just above middle of discocellular ; vein 1 is swollen and bent near 

 base, with a small fovea below the bend in both sexes. In the hiudwing the 

 inner margin of the J is folded and furrowed, but lacks the pencil of iiairs.

14. Neodirades spurcata sjicc. nov. 



Forewing : greyish white, coarsely black-speckled ; a darker central fascia 

 with curved edges, twice as broad on costa as on inner margin, limited by a 

 paler, more whitish, area ; an interrupted blackish streak from apex to anal 

 angle ; a dark marginal line ; fringe dark. 



Hiwhcinij : similar in ? ; in the S the whole wing above vein 5 is white, 

 crossed by a dark outer line ; the inner marginal lialf being mnch blacker. 



Underside dark grey, paler in hindwing. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen blackish. 



Expanse of wings : S 17 mm. ; ? 19 mm. 



A pair from 8anto Domingo, Carabaya, !S.E. Pern, OOiiO ft., November 1001, 

 wet season (Ockenden). 



Saccoploca gen. nov. 



i. Fori'iriixj : ample, triangular; costa faintly curved, becoming strongly 

 convex at aj)ex ; apex dejiressed, minutely acute ; liindmiirgin long, incurved just 

 below apex, then slightly oblique and convex ; anal angle rounded ; inner margin 

 convex, about as long as outer margin. In the ? of the type-species the 

 hindmargin of forewing is excised between veins 4 and 7. 



Uin<hnmj : with ai)ical angle rounded, anal angle rectangular ; inner margin 

 in S largely folded over underneath, concealing a mass of flocculent scales ; the 

 whole of the outer margin up to the fringes clad beneath with rough mealy scales ; 

 a semi-transparent fovea at base of cell. In the ? the hindwings are simple. 

 Palpi i)orrect, not reaching beyond face ; third segment slender, distinct ; antennae 

 subserratc, laterally flattened in the cj, lamellate in the ¥ ; tongue and frenulum 

 present. 



Neuratiou : forewing, cell not half as long as wing ; discocellular vertical ; 

 first median at two-thirds, second at five-sixths ; vein 5 from upper angle of cell ; 

 6, 7 stalked from the same point ; 8, 9 stalked from two-thirds, Hi just before 

 them; 11 from one-third, bent up towards 12; hindwing with 3, 4, and 0, 7 

 stalked.
